Being in a financial position to experiment and pursue new skills is such a privileged position. I'm finally gonna try growing some herbs and spices indoors at home. Hopefully I can replace those purchases at the grocery store and get a higher quality product I control.

@KhalidWarsa @Logitech yeah 😅 Seems like with both mice and keyboards you have to go to the extreme in price to get full configurability. The Bluetooth switching is one feature that I love for sure. Jumping from work to personal computer is pretty quick for both my keyboard and mouse.

@basicBrogrammer That's fair. I've never used a Mac as a personal computer. I just can't see myself using windows 11. Enough is enough with the forced ads and data mining. I'm willing to convert if I had to choose 😂

@KhalidWarsa It's like coding isn't enough anymore. Everything is political. I remember being taught to leave politics at home and out of the workplace. Now it's like the complete opposite.

Whenever I'm in a funk I go into a 2 option cycle: 1. work on the thing I am avoiding 2. go to sleep I eventually get bored enough and have enough energy to just attack the task and like it. This is what my kids will get. Regularly scheduled healthy doses of boredom. 🤣

And I can grep through my notes to find exact context and references for certain past projects that had something useful I want to incorporate into a current project.
@KhalidWarsa @justalexoki The setup process for new languages, frameworks, integrations. Adding notes to API docs. It's hard to do all that in code comments so I started writing notes to keep track of it all. Now I have clear references and context for code I wrote a year or more ago that I forgot about.

@KhalidWarsa @justalexoki I still take a ton of notes. I have more notes than code but I write it all in readme files with code snippets.

@ahmedopolis Yeah. Haven't been a regular viewer in a while. None of it feels real or passionate anymore. The decline of the NBA has been sad to see. It used to be fantasy league fanatics at worst but at least they had passion. Now it's like dog or horse racing.

Almost every advertisement is gambling!!! People are not doing okay in Ontario and these companies are preying on that. Selling miracles Frustrating to think about how many people make a fool's bet and get royally screwed.
